An incredible story but when it comes to the writing I'd point you in the direction of Krakauer's "Into Thin Air" much sooner than to "Into the Void." Again, a crazy tale of events and an amazing climb for a 22 and 25 year old to…

A classic of mountaineering literature, this thrilling tale of survival will leave you shaking your head that anyone can be so determined to survive. The 2004 movie on DVD is highly recommended as well.
